USE
On/off 4
- switch on the tool by pushing switch A forward
- green light B will turn on indicating that the tool is
ready for operation
- switch off the tool (= lock the self-leveling system) by
pushing switch A backwards
! do not look into the laser beam
! do not point the laser beam at persons or animals
! always switch off the tool after use
Mounting of batteries 5
! ensure that the tool is switched off
- turn tool upside down
- open cover E
- insert 3 x AA (LR6) / 1,5V batteries (pay attention to
correct polarisation)
- close cover E and ensure it is in place securely
- always remove the batteries from the tool, if the tool
is not used for a long period
- always replace the complete set of batteries
Operating the tool 6
- position the tool on a horizontal surface
- switch on the tool
! if the surface inclines more than ± 5º, an acoustic
warning signal indicates that the tool is out of its
self-leveling range
! before projecting a line shake the tool somewhat
in order to activate the self-leveling system and
wait for 5 seconds
- project a horizontal line by pressing button C for the
first time
- project a vertical line by pressing button C for the
second time
- project a crossed line by pressing button C for the
third time
- for using the tool manually project a crossed line by
pressing button C for the fourth time (the acoustic
warning signal will not occur, even if the tool is out of
its self-leveling range)
- shut off the laser line by pressing button C for the
fifth time (green light B will stay on)
- by pressing button C for the sixth time, the tool will
go back to projecting horizontal lines again
- obstructions in front of the tool will not affect the line
projection 7
- use the tool manually for quick reference of a straight
line or alignment of two points of reference 8
- make measurements using the projected line as
reference 9
Aligning objects using the crossed line projection 0
Aligning objects horizontally on adjacent walls !
Aligning objects vertically on adjacent surfaces @
Laser viewing glasses #
- for improving the view of the laser line
! these glasses will not protect your eyes against
laser radiation
Tripod $
- unfold the tripod
- adjust length of 3 legs with knobs F
- adjust length of rod G with knob H
